Well, it’s been a rather dreary day here on the Web end of Arrowstar Roofing & Construction. Though I had intended to pen posts on shingle replacement, a new winter roof maintenance package here at Arrowstar (Stay Tuned for Details!) and commercial flat roofing, several other things popped up and I was not able to write our morning post. Here are a few random Arrowstar thoughts for the day!
Fortunately, however, I was able to meet with a fabulous representative named Diane Young from the User-Friendly Phone Book, the OKC Metro’s second-largest home and business directory with a distribution of 561,000… and from looking at the ads in the business section, one of the hottest ad buys on the market. I strongly recommend this publication, and can happily put any OKC business owner in touch with Diane if they wish to check into advertising for their own company. Just e-mail me for the information.
It was through her that I also learned about a great new Web site… oklahomacity247.com. I highly recommend checking it out.
Without giving too much away, I can only say that I walked away with an excellent ad package that I personally believe will bring about fantastic ROI. Be sure to look for your copy in March 2009 and check out our ads in the “Roofing” section.
From there, I spent most of the day drafting artwork ideas for our purchased space… wishing the whole time I would have bought a bigger ad. From what I have so far, however, I am more than optimistic that we will have one of the best ads in the book!
Despite hard economic times due to the smarty-pants on Wall Street, calls seem to have picked up here over the past couple days. Many thanks for that goes to the great Oklahoma City community newspapers that we regularly advertise in. When I was not busy with the marketing end of things, I was overwhelmed answering the phone. I personally look forward to a full economic recovery for our great nation by next year, but am pleased that Arrowstar is swamped with work even in the economic crisis of recent weeks.
Am also pleased that we have been working on even material certifications today, making a lot of progress in the products we will be able to offer to our commercial roofing customers.
Stay tuned. Tomorrow I plan to work much of the day on our Web site and you will undoubtedly see a lot of great roofing content.
I will be updating our LiveJournal, Twitter, Myspace and Facebook profiles, groups, and blogs shortly.

We were lucky enough to receive a telephone call yesterday afternoon from Richard Mize, Real Estate Editor from the Daily Oklahoman, who was interested in reprinting an article recently penned by David W. Locklear, owner of Arrowstar Roofing & Construction. Most of our post, Property owners urged to be ‘Patient’, says Oklahoma City roofing contractor, was included on the back page of the Business section.
